There are almost 50,000 cases of the 2021 Zinfandel Blend 8 Years in the Desert, a mix of Zinfandel, Syrah, Petite Sirah and Grenache. Mixed raspberries, blackberries and blueberries appear on the nose, while the palate is full-bodied, ripe and supple, yet with just enough softly dusty tannins, a velvety texture and no suggestion of raisined fruit. With its amiable nature and fresh, lingering finish, it should win lots of fans.

A Journey Through Exile and Creation

Eight Years in the Desert is a story of perseverance, creativity, and redemption. After selling his original brand The Prisoner, winemaker Dave Phinney was prohibited from making a Zinfandel-based wine for eight years — his own “exile in the desert.”

When the restriction ended, Phinney returned with a masterpiece that redefined modern Californian red blends. Eight Years in the Desert is his symbolic return — a luxurious and expressive wine crafted from Zinfandel, Syrah, and Petite Sirah, sourced from premier vineyards across California, including Napa, Sonoma, and Paso Robles.

Each vintage is a collector’s piece — beautifully bottled with minimalist art labels that reflect Phinney’s philosophy: “Great wine is equal parts precision, passion, and poetry.”
